GLOBAL PROTECT login failing intermittently with 2 factor authentication for security groups

L1 Bithead

We are implementing 2 factor authentication and it is failing intermittently when using security groups in the authentication profile.  When we use "all" in the LDAP tree, it works like a champ.  When we go to a single group, it fails with "user not in allow list" but when checking the user database, the user-id is listed.  If we use the same authentication group without 2 factor it works every time as well.  The timeout for 2 factor has been increased from 60 to 120 seconds.  We are also getting the message from our 2 factor auth vendor every time.  Although we get prompted twice.

Has anyone else had this issue as it was been a week working with support without progress?

do you mean 2 factor as in pin/password and passcode or 2 factor as in password and certificate?

 

is your user database local or ldap?

It is a LDAP database.   We are testing a solution related to what the LDAP server is sending over.  So far so good.

so ldap is working?
